Official title: Wetsvoorstel tot wijziging van het Wetboek van economisch recht voor wat betreft de bescherming tegen deepfakes.
Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘Pending in the Chamber’)
In plain language
- The proposal grants everyone the exclusive right to permit or ban the creation and distribution of AI-generated deepfakes of their face or voice.
- This applies to every individual in Belgium, not just professional artists or public figures.
- If someone creates or shares a deepfake of you without your permission, you can ask a judge to order its prompt removal and claim financial compensation.
